hey guys dr. Berg here in this video I  want to talk about popcorn okay now a lot  

of people love popcorn in fact I love popcorn  in fact I used to work at a theater in making  

the popcorn that was last year no I’m just  kidding it was like five thirty five years  

ago but anyway 95% popcorn is GMO so that’s  one of the problems with popcorn popcorn is  

highly glycemic it turns into sugar pretty fast  it’s not good if you want to lose weight but  

the microwave popcorn is the worst because it  has a chemical in the butter flavoring called  

diacetyl and it’s been linked to a lot of bad  problems so I’ll put a link down below so you  

want to avoid microwaved popcorn okay now some  of you are very very upset that I’m talking  

about these things and you you’re not going  to give up popcorn so for those of you that  

want to do popcorn on a infrequent basis I want  to give you an alternative especially if you’re  

not trying to lose weight you know just don’t  do this it’s frequent as maybe you were doing  

the regular popcorn but you can take another  grain called sorghum okay you can get this  

anywhere you get online and you can pop it just  like popcorn sorghum is gluten-free non-gmo it  

has the lowest glycemic index of all the grains  okay but you can just compete yourself cook it  

in coconut oil and use grass-fed butter okay  in sea salt the butter will buffer some of the  

glycemic index but it’s a lot better than corn  as far as turning in the sugar so that’s just a  

quick tip but again I’m not telling everyone  can start consuming a lot of popcorn because  

I’m going to get some emails saying them now  I’m not losing weight because I’m eating this  

every single day it’s just your alternative  every so often alright thanks for watching
